What's a good historical battle that makes a well balanced scenario for Hail Caesar? I'm thinking of a battle where both sides have an even chance of winning without having to make major rule changes or troop changes to make it competative. |

Arsuf is one of the more balanced battles of the crusader era. Two generals with their full armies looking for a fight. Hastings is good, but requires a well written mission to get the Saxons off the hill without feeling contrived. |

The Saxons at Hastings obeyed Rule #1, "hold the high ground," and lost anyway… So, why would leaving it make the game "more balanced?" Unless your idea of "balance" is that the Normans should win more quickly? |
